Why am I updating while I have no time? because I made an excuse to go for a ride instead of working every minute today on the buggy. I gotta go get a jet guage/reamer set up for its carbs. Plus I'm hoping to try to rid myself of the chem-dip fumes that have soaked into my skin by heavy applications of throttle on the thruxton. I'm throwing my jug of chem-dip away for good, that stuff is way too noxious and spooky. It'll just be carb cleaner next time. Goddamn it's beautiful out smile .

On some cars those big cheese slicers actually do something. Don't worry about getting schooled on your Thurxton, you ride that bike for the fun of it. If you'd wanted to be competitive with modern machinery you'd have ridden the ZRX, right?

The candy green will look much more pretty with a white base coat.

As for flakes, I know some people pore the flake over the wet base like pouring gravy on turkey. That would be a waist (I've seen some guy's use three jars of flake when they could have used one jar mixed with clear (stupid asses)). What I normally do for the flake being the main color is estimate the amount of flake(and use the smallest flake you can find for this) you'll use divide it into two coats with clear (and very-very little reducer) and spray away. And now for the real work....to berry the flake and give it a nice smooth finish, I've gone upto 9 to 14 coats of clear (for a bicycle frame) to completely bury the flake and that is with wet sanding in-between every two coats of clear. For a fuel tank, I'll estimate it at 3 to 5 coats (maybe more?) of clear.
